ALPHABET DISHCLOTH: Z
ALPHABET Series: Z DISHCLOTH
After months of work, today marks the end of another project: my Alphabet Series. Now even Diego de la Vega can have his monogrammed blanket (you know who he is, don’t you?).
Below you can find the pattern for Z letter and the option to buy a PDF file containing all the patterns of this series for $5. If you can do it, I’ll appreciate your help to finance my next projects. But if you can’t, please don’t worry! Just make sure to tell people where did you get the patterns if they ask. That’s a great help for me too 🙂
I hope you enjoyed this project, and I’ll see you on the next one!
Hugs to you,
Ceci
PS: you won’t have to wait too much, I’ll be posting the next pattern of my 52 Square Pickup tomorrow! 😛

DIAMONDS pattern: Block 25 of 52 Square Pickup
PATTERN 25: DIAMONDS
Hello! I just got back home, after a very boring day to renew my driver’s license (yawn!). It’s still cloudy and rainy here and I don’t think I’ll have enough good light later to take photos of the finished square.
So… Can we knit this one together?
I’m sharing here the pattern and some photos of my WIP (I’ll change them once I take photos of the finished block 🙂 )
The new pattern (block 25) is called DIAMONDS, and I think it looks very good from both sides. This is how it looks from the back:
I’ll be making another one with the reverse stocking st backgroud to add to my squares pile. If you’re a beginner and don’t know how to reverse the pattern, don’t worry! I’ll share it in the next few days.
For the time being, I’ll get back to knit my diamonds!
xo,
Ceci
PS: this block is a bit difficult, with 20 different rows. I’m sharing also a downloadable file with the control table I always make for my Patreon supporters. You can use the control table to check your progress through the pattern repeats. And those intructions include the border stitches (k4).
SMILEY Dishcloth or Blanket Block
SMILEY DISHCLOTH OR BLANKET BLOCK
I designed my SMILEY Dishcloth pattern (or Blanket Block) as a fun addition to my Alphabet Blanket. It has the same amount of sts and rows as any other square of the Alphabet Series and 52 Square Pickup ones. Of course, you can also use them as dishcloth / washcloth, or incorporate the patterns in any other project you like.
I think it could be also a fun gift to help kids (and adults!) go through their cleaning chores with a smile 🙂
ALPHABET DISHCLOTH: Y
ALPHABET Series: Y DISHCLOTH
Hello,
We’re almost there, one square away of the finishing line 🙂
If you are making an alphabet blanket, you’ll probably be 2 blocks short. At least I am, because I’m joining them into 4 strips! So, I will be using the heart (here‘s the post for the free pattern) for one of the vacant spots and I’m designing a smiley for the other one (I’m on it!). I thought those could be fun aditions to the project. I’ll share the smiley pattern too, as soon as I finish it.
For now, grab your needles and yarn, and I hope you enjoy the pattern below 🙂

ALIENS RISING pattern: Block 24 of 52 Square Pickup
PATTERN 24: UNNAMED –> ALIENS RISING (thank you, Denise!)
Happy Monday 🙂
As you surely guessed, I had no idea how to call this one. Any suggestions?
Enjoy your week, and happy knitting!

CHECKERBOARD pattern: Block 23 of 52 Square Pickup
PATTERN 23: CHECKERBOARD
Good morning! Or afternoon, or night 🙂
With today’s block we get back on schedule after my technical troubles. It’s an easy one and I thought it was the perfect time for one of those, specially if you have some knitting to catch up on.
I’ll dedicate the rest of this week to my Alphabet series. I have 3 more letters to finish (X, Y and Z) and I’m also planning to revise the first ones.
Happy knitting!

BROKEN A & B patterns: Block 21 of 52 Square Pickup
PATTERN 21: BROKEN
Hello! I case you wondered, I was off grid the last week because my computer decided to take a vacation 😉 Now that it’s fixed and ready to work, I have 2 blocks to share…
For this one (block 21) I have to versions for you. I started knitting the blue one, but as days passed (and I missed my computer) I began to believe it looks too similar to “growing leaves”… What do you think? Or is just me?
Anyway, I decided to give the idea another try and shifted the broken lines a bit more to obtain the purple square.
I hope you enjoy knitting one, the other, or both!
Talk to you soon 🙂
